Yorkshire company SimVenture has been named by the Government as one of ten winners of this year’s Made in the UK, Sold to the World Awards.
Based between Selby and York, SimVenture supplies software to education institutions and workplace training providers in more than 20 countries, who use it to help educators and trainers bring business learning to life. It offers business and entrepreneurship learning tools, on which learners can make decisions, deal with consequences, and work in an authentic way.
Peter Harrington, SimVenture Co-founder and CEO, said: “We are dedicated to leveraging advanced learning technologies to positively impact lives worldwide. Winning this award validates the investments and risks we’ve taken over two decades. This prestigious recognition will fuel our growth and expansion into new global markets.
“With recent contract signings in the United States and Algeria, we anticipate significant growth for SimVenture in both the education and corporate training sectors, further solidifying our position as a global leader in EdTech innovation.”
Now in their second year, the awards celebrate the international sales success of SMEs across the UK, and provide a stepping stone for further growth and opportunity.
Minister for Exports Lord Offord said: “We’re proud of our British exporters and these Awards highlight some fantastic businesses punching above their weight and selling UK-made products and services around the world.
“I hope the winners serve as inspiration to others looking to get onto the exporting ladder and encourage more businesses to showcase the incredible talent and innovation of UK businesses selling abroad.”
